My Name is
Charity
Charity
Both of Charity's parents were killed during riots in Jos, Nigeria. Her widowed grandmother cared for six of her own children and could not provide for Charity. Charity came to live at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2003. She quickly proved to be a very polite and affectionate child who enjoyed Rafiki’s daily Bible study and quality education. Charity is a graduate of the Rafiki School and currently studies English at university. She is thankful for the provision and protection she was offered during her years at the Rafiki Village. Charity prays that she will become more like Christ, growing in wisdom and understanding.
